05/31/2005: "Garden II & Front Lawn"
Yesterday, I spread white clover seed around the front soon-to-be-lawn and some areas around the garden, specifically a small section just to the West, and some around the edges of the South and East sides. I didn't inoculate, because the guy at Hewitt's said I didn't need to...we'll see if he knew what he was talking about or not. I may have sprinkled some seed in random places nearby as well.
Speaking of the soon-to-be-front-lawn, about 2-3 days ago I noticed that the new grass had actually begun growing. I must have planted it about 10-14 days ago and I had pretty much given up hope that it was going to ever sprout. Now it is growing well, gaining a little height each day, and giving more green character to the area. The cat grass is growing well too (getting higher), but it doesn't seem to have spread yet.
Today I planted some Lupine (Russell Hybrids Mixed) in a plot slightly South-West of the fenced garden. We'll see if I can keep the chickens from eating it.
